Arrow Up Icon

Q: When should I use it instead of a similar icon?

Use it for send buttons in an AI chat prompt box, where the button around the arrow sets its shape; reorder controls that shift a row or layer 1 position higher, beside move down; and a scroll to top link in a docs outline or a toolbar of thin line glyphs. For uploading a file or opening a share sheet from a toolbar, use the Exit Up icon. For collapsing an open section or closing an accordion panel, use the Up icon. For sending an email or a direct message to a person, use the Paper Plane icon.

Straight arrow pointing up with an open chevron head, for scroll to top, move up and ascending sort. Available in 4 styles (outline, solid, duotone and filled) as a React component you install with the shadcn CLI.

Arrow Up icon FAQ

What does this icon show?

Straight arrow pointing up with an open chevron head, for scroll to top, move up and ascending sort. Typical uses: back to top button on a long page, move an item up in a ranked list and ascending sort indicator on a table header.

When should I use it instead of a similar icon?

Use it for:

Send buttons in an AI chat prompt box, where the button around the arrow sets its shape
Reorder controls that shift a row or layer 1 position higher, beside move down
A scroll to top link in a docs outline or a toolbar of thin line glyphs

For uploading a file or opening a share sheet from a toolbar, use the Exit Up icon. For collapsing an open section or closing an accordion panel, use the Up icon. For sending an email or a direct message to a person, use the Paper Plane icon.

Which styles does it come in?

4 styles: Outline, Solid, Duotone and Filled. Every style is drawn on the same 24 by 24 grid and installs as its own file, so you can switch styles without touching the layout.

How do I install it with the shadcn CLI?

Copy the install command from the panel above, in the style you want, and run it in your project. The shadcn CLI adds the icon as a React component that you import and render like any other. It draws in the current text color, so your text color and size classes style it. Icon installs need a ReUI Ultimate license.

What icons go well with it?

Icons from the same family and the Arrows set: Arrow Back, Arrow Down, Arrow Down Left, Arrow Down Right, Arrow Down Triangle and Arrow Left.

When was it added?

It joined the ReUI icon library on June 30, 2026.
